As today is the day for The Beatles, everyone should be running out to get their copies of the entire original Beatles catalogue which has been digitally re-mastered for the first time, 2 new Beatles boxed CD collections, and The Beatles: Rock Band video game!

Catalogue Information:
The collection comprises all 12 Beatles albums in stereo, with track listings and artwork as originally released in the UK, and ‘Magical Mystery Tour,’ which became part of The Beatles’ core catalogue when the CDs were first released in 1987. In addition, the collections ‘Past Masters Vol. I and II’ are now combined as one title, for a total of 14 titles over 16 discs. This will mark the first time that the first four Beatles albums will be available in stereo in their entirety on compact disc. These 14 albums, along with a DVD collection of the documentaries, will also be available for purchase together in a stereo boxed set.

Within each CD’s new packaging, booklets include detailed historical notes along with informative recording notes. With the exception of the ‘Past Masters’ set, newly produced mini-documentaries on the making of each album, directed by Bob Smeaton, are included as QuickTime files on each album. The documentaries contain archival footage, rare photographs and never-before-heard studio chat from The Beatles, offering a unique and very personal insight into the studio atmosphere.

I had always enjoyed music from The Beatles growing up but it wasn’t until after I saw Across the Universe did I really think about how amazing The Beatles are and how much of an impact The Beatles has made on not only the music world but the entire world.

Here are 7 of my favorite songs by The Beatles:
Blackbird/Yesterday
Because
If I Fell
Revolution
All My Loving
Come Together
Strawberry Fields Forever
